The Rose Chords by Bette Midler

[N] _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Some say _ _ _ love, it [Em] is [G] a river _ _ _ [Em] that [Dm] _ _ _ [F] _
drowns [G] the [C] tender _ _ reed.
_ [G] Some say [Am] love, _ _ _ it is [G] a razor _ _ _ _ that [F] _ _
_ _ [G] leaves your soul [C] to bleed.
_ _ _ Some say _
_ [G] love, _ it is a _ [Am] hunger, _ _ _ _ [F] an _ _ endless [A] _ [F] _ _
aching _ _ [G] _ need.
[C]
I say love, _ _ _ it is a [G] flower _ _ _ [F] and _ you _ _
[C] its only _ seed. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ It's the _ _ heart _ _ afraid [G] of breaking _ _ _ _ [F] that never _ _
_ _ [G] learns [C] to dance. _
_ _ It's the dream _ _ _ _ afraid [G] of waking _ _ that [F] never _ _
_ _ [G] takes [C] the _ chance.
_ _ It's [Em] the one _ _ who [Am] won't be _ taken _ who [F] _ cannot _ _ _ seem [G] to _ hear.
_ _ The [C] _ soul _ _ _ _ afraid [G] of dying _ _ _ that [F] _ never _ _ _ [G] _ [C] learns to _ _ live. _ _ _ _ _
When _ _ the night _ _ _ has been too [G] lonely _ _ _ and [F] the road has [G] been [C] too long.
_ _ Then you _ _ think that love is [G] only _ _ for [F] the lucky _ _ _ _ [C] and the _ strong.
_ Just _ [Em] remember _ _
_ _ _ [Am] _ winter, _ _
_ [A] far _ [Dm] beneath _ _ the bitter [G] snow. _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ Lies the seed _ _ that [Em] with [G] the sun's love [C] in [F] the spring _ _ _ _ [G] _ becomes the rose. _ _ _ _ _
